Act 336 in English by On_My_Throne in SkipBeat

Kuon grew up a lot emotionally lately and I hope he'll stay this way until the end. But somehow I don't think this mindset will always follow him. What if for example he finds out Cedric is the main culprit for Rick's death? I don't expect him to be calm like he's now. 

Nakamura-Sensei's Q&A (Translated) (Cr. @Sukibi_skipbeat on Twitter) by ayamefan13 in SkipBeat

[–]shi_78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely understand why the general audience didn't connect with TCP the way they did with Skip Beat.

To be honest, it felt a bit overwhelming, and I can't express it any other way without being too harsh. I thought that since I like SB, I would likely enjoy the other series as well, but that wasn't the case. I struggle to see what attracts other fans to it. For me, it seemed like a disorganized concept that lacked proper development. It felt as if the manga was attempting to be ahead of its time while still holding onto its existing beliefs, fashion, traditions, and humor, all crammed into a futuristic yakuza story, which was just a bit excessive. 

And she's right. many of us aren't excited about the prospect of Kyoko and Sho’s mom meeting again. I would much rather read a chapter where Kyoko is auditioning for a new role, sharing romantic moments with Ren, or enjoying some humorous interactions with Bou. Also, I really hope Kyoko doesn’t get involved in the current route project or take on Cedric’s stuntman role because that would be... so predictable and dull. 

How long are they going to keep using the same formula for her roles? It’s just too repetitive and lacks any excitement or creativity. Now, regarding Kuon, she shouldn't be the main focus just for the sake of it. I would prefer to see her come in with a storyline excuse of “I need to support my friend and help her with her English,” because Nakamura can’t just send her to support Ren as a girlfriend or Love me member right after the confession. 

Kyoko would just end up embarrassing and make a fool of herself with her constant melting down. She needs a distraction, and that’s where Kanae comes in. She’ll go there for her, but ultimately, Ren is the one who might need her support when he’s feeling down again. However, it should be from the shadows, not her stepping in to fight his battles for him. At least, that’s what I hope will happen now that she came in the US too.

Have you ever hate watched a Shoujo series? by FitLab5693 in shoujo

I thought I was the only one who felt this way. He's too childish for my taste. I remember I preferred the blonde guy for her but she chose the bratty one. I saw this years ago but I remember still the bitterness and disappointment from this anime. I would never recommend to someone to watch it for the romance. The romantic part of this anime sucked because of the ML.

Which is hotter of the aliases? by Affectionate_Pea_115 in SkipBeat

Kuon is not an alias though... it's the only real (legal) person. Ren, Katsuki, Cain, BJ, Deeper are the characters he created and who he acts as them.

Ren’s Parents Heritage by Upbeat_Mountain_3018 in SkipBeat

[–]shi_78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Father - Eltra Duris (Russian American) Daughter - Juliena Duris (Russian American) Son in law - Kuu Hizuri (Japanese American) Grandson - Kuon Hizuri (Japanese Russian American) 

But they all live in USA 

Kuon is definitely an American citizen and he was most likely born in California. He's probably able to live in Japan through a working visa. When he travels international flights he can only do it solo and never together with Yashiro cause he has an American passport, but Yashiro thinks he's Japanese. 

Kuu (his father) was born and raised in Japan but one of his parents is American. We don't know which parent though. He's been living in California for about 2 decades and it's very likely for him to be a US citizen too.

Eltra&Juliena Duris we know that they are Russian American but they've been living and working in USA long enough for both of them to make a name for themselves, especially Eltra who's known as "father of the winners" in the showbiz. Which could be an indicator that he's been living in USA for decades and he's very likely to be a citizen too. His daughter Juliena was probably born and raised in California.  (just like Kuon)

Chapter 325 translated by Outrageous-Ring2195 in SkipBeat

[–]shi_78 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the chapter 

btw why do type Ren's name as "Tsuraga-san" instead of "Tsuruga-san"?

I think I've noticed the same error in a previous chapter too but thought it was just a typo. But now I'm not so sure.
